DVD Reviews of NHL: Stanley Cup 2007-2008 Champions - Detroit Red Wings
DVD Review: Bought through Amazon
Summary: 5 Stars
This has every cup game between the Penguins and the Red Wings from their classic 07/08 finals. Hopefully the rematch in 08-09 comes out too.DVD Review: Red Wing Championship DVD
Summary: 4 Stars
This DVD set is almost perfect, in my opinion. I'm only 23 years old, but I'm a very dedicated and lifelong Red Wing fan. Let's go over the pluses of this package here...you get all six Stanley Cup Final games spread across four DVD's, without commercial interruption. However, the big downside, and only real one in my opinion, is that you can little to no pregame or postgame on any of these games. Sometimes you get maybe 30-60 seconds before, and maybethe same afterward, but just to recap and/or introduce what you all ready saw. There is no intermission reports, which isn't the end of the world, but would have been nice and seems like it could be part of a Championship DVD pack. After Game 6, you do see the presentation of the Conn Smythe and the Cup, along with some interviews and celebration (maybe 15 minutes or so). Overall, I give this a B+ or so, and if you're a fan, you should invest in this. The Season highlight/recap video is NOT on this DVD, so if you want that instead/too, you need to get it separately.DVD Review: Great product, great price
Summary: 5 Stars
Awesome price on the DVDs. They arrived very quickly. I couldn't be more satisfied. Will definately order from them again.DVD Review: It is what it is!
Summary: 4 Stars
I am sorry that some people feel they got duped by this set not having the highlight video in it but that is nobody's fault but thier own. The description of this set was perfectly clear to understand and nowhere did it say anything about the highlight video. I pre-ordered this the day it went up on Amazon and I understood fully what I was getting because I actually took the time to properly read the description. I pre-ordered the highlight video at the same time I pre-orfered this set. If you take the time to properly read a description then you wont run into these problems. If you do have a question then email customer service or do some researching on the net. They actually had a page up on the Red Wings homw page that also explained what was going to be in this set so you could have gotten that info from multiple places. Again this is nobody's fault but thier own.
As for the set, Its everything I expected it to be and I am a huge fan of these types of sets. They should release these for all of the recent Red Wing Stanley Cup seasons. I would buy them without hesitation. My one complaint and ultimatly why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that they cut pretty much all of the commentary. I enjoy the pregame and postgame commentary. The pregame commentary sets up the game your about to watch and the postgame gives you a nice conclusion. By just jumping right into the game and skipping the commentary you basically cut out an essential aspect to the games. IMO those pre and post game commentaries are vital. It just doesnt feel right jumping right into the game with no setup whatsoever by the commentator's. With how cheap DVD's are to produce there is simply no excuse for cutting out such material. If I were the one in charge of making these sets I would include absolutely everything I could get my hands on. Personally I would love to see all 4 playoff series in a set like this but I can understand why they concentrated on just the finals. In the future it would be nice to have 2 different releases, one that is more expensive and has all 4 series and a cheaper one for those who just want the finals. I would easily pay 50-60 bucks for all 16 victories on DVD.
Beyond that one complaint its a great set. Having these games in DVD quality is awesome especially when the finals were as entertaining as they were. As I am sure most other Red Wings fans are aware, the Wings absolutely destroyed the competition in the finals during the 3 previous cup victories. I think they only lost 1 finals game out of the last 12 before coming up agains Pitt. I was really hoping for a quality series and not another sweep and we absolutely got a great series It was one of the best finals in a long time and this set gives us Winger fans the opprotunity to enjoy it for years and years to come.
Highly recommended even if it is a bit flawed.
DVD Review: Misleading
Summary: 2 Stars
The title "Detroit Red Wings Stanley Cup Champions Special Edition" led me to believe that this DVD set included the season recap and championship video in addition to the finals games. I mostly wanted the recap, but I was willing to pay a few more bucks to have the recap and all the games from the finals. However as other reviewers have already pointed out, this is simply a bare bones DVD of the finals games with no special features, no regular season recap, no highlights from the other series, no intermission coverage, and no locker-room celebration after the win. Nothing but the actual games. Which is OK, but not what I wanted.
Now to see the recap they want me to fork out another $20? Ridiculous.
